Polypropylene piping system manufacturer
Aquatherm introduces its new training program: Aquatherm
Academy. It will consist of three programs: Aquatherm
Training Professional, a Trainer Refresh course, and sales
training for Aquatherm reps and distributors.

The Aquatherm Master Training (trainer training) program
ended, effective June 1, and is replaced by the ATP program.
The ATP program expands upon the Master Training program to
cover a wider range of installation techniques and jobsite
troubleshooting.

The three-and-a-half-day ATP course will be offered only at
Aquatherm’s North American headquarters in Lindon, Utah. The
one-day Trainer Refresh and one-day sales training will be
conducted locally/in the field.

Course materials for
the socket and outlet, butt fusion and electrofusion courses
have been updated to reflect the changes made in the ATP course.

Polypropylene pipe is joined via heat fusion, which eliminates
open flame and VOCs from the metal-welding equation and creates
virtually

leak-free connections. Designing and installing with PP-R
requires a bit of a different mindset than traditional piping
materials, but most designers, pipefitters and plumbers adapt
quickly with proper training.

For the last decade Aquatherm helped educate North American
engineers, installers and facility managers on heat fusion
techniques, and the company continues to offer extensive heat
fusion courses (including socket fusion, butt fusion,
electrofusion and others) to customers free of charge. These
courses help ensure safe, consistent and profitable
installations.
